    The awd v6 is better than people think, and you still get the looks, it’s just the stigma of not having a v8 bandwagon, that deceives people

    I’ve got two Challengers, a 2018 SXT Black Top and a 2023 Scat Pack Plus. I love them both and both are a lot of fun to drive. The SXT is my daily and the Scat is my weekend toy.

    Such a great all-around car with all the Challenger styling and can actually work in foul weather. Also, love that SXT Plus interior…wish they’d keep these coming👍

      The V6 with the 8 speed auto is fine in the snow without AWD in my experience as well. Snow tires of course are a help as well. My hemi Magnum I had previously? Not so much lol.

    Got a 2016... going on 3 years... had chances to upgrade to a RT, but I grew attached to my 6. Don't see myself trading it. But I will add a RT to my collection after this is paid off.

    I drive a 22GT with nothing upgrade on the inside and it's nice gas mileage is great. I'm 12,000 miles in 1yr owner road trips are fun ... paddle shifting with the borla Exhaust system is a beast down shift.. also I'm a mountain driver so going off road is nice and I'm mean off road mountain edges water on both sides 40 60ft drops... travels though snow good as well... I live in the north of NY so dodge has a Northeastern package its nice.. out side car I don't baby it... all around good car. Sound system sucks.. but I got 2 old skool kickers in mine..so I bump

    I've got an 09 SXT AWD Charger that I've put 160k miles on for a total of 190k. Has a 91 octane tune, otherwise it's stock. Been a bulletproof car, awesome for road trips.

  • @houselog442
    @houselog442 Рік тому +5

    I like the sound of it. I am impressed for the sound even though it is a V6. Most 6 cylinders sound crappy unless it’s Italian. Did you put special exhaust on it?

    • @houselog442
      @houselog442 Рік тому +1

    Great review, just what I was looking for. Have a Charger GT AWD Special Edition waiting to be shipped. Was debating if I should just go up to the hemi, but I live in MI and wanted the AWD. After watching this, I think I will be just fine.

      Wisconsin boy here, i just traded my 19 sxt plus for a 23 sxt plus. both awd . you will not regret it! anyone that thinks these arent worthy is a fool. do yourself a favor and hit some twisty backroads in sport mode and manual shift it, they shine!

    What kinda exhaust set up is that ? I just got a GT and got a rear res delete but was wanting a deeper tone similiar to this one.

    It looks too nice outside for it to be in Awd and not Rwd. AWD only kicks in with Rain, tire slippage, or a outside temperature of 40 degrees or lower. Scroll through your Dash, it will tell you what you're in at the moment.

    • @GuysTalkingCars
      @GuysTalkingCars  Рік тому +2

      Sport mode drops it into AWD as well. I would not have bought it if I could not manually select AWD

      Oh I did not (Jared). I had the scat AND the V6. Shane did sell his scat for financial reasons.

      Tbh on low dodge move sum v6 to the hemi line so it not all that bad like old v6s that moved like saturn... I 2 had an RT and now GT. It just makes sense....don't fight it... the way I look at it. The kids who won in there Science fair at school... went to nationals and made fun daily drivers with better gas mileage

    rented two for 1.5 months now 2023. Props for looks, expecially the purple, engine, handling, trunk, interior is beautiful as it gets. But, as daily driver a lot that's annoying to irritating. from uncomfotable seats for 2023 to too thick a steering wheel. hard to reach and find controls on the dash, a computer that repeatedly does what it wants instead of what u want, is it e.g. really necessary for the windows to partially come down when you get in, or the lights to come on when you get out, etc. things ud put up with on the drag strip that become a repeated pain. hard to reach seat belts. and the coup just fails to cut it if you transport anything in your car. lose a credit card in one of the crevices, good luck ever finding it. More props to Dodge engineers for low torque in the lower gears, makes it much safer to drive, and they avoided the eye damaging headlights. now, if they'd send 'em to ergonic college wed have something.
